Whitaker Broadcasts *38 Class Reunion
Here we are, my friends', Avith ye
old news commentator, Eidley
Whitaker, or Ted Husing, II, bring
ing to you through the services of
radio the reunion of the class of
1938, which has aroused interna
tional interest. Ten years have
made a lot of diiference Avith the
old grads, and as we unite here
on these old cliffs o’er the ISTeuse, I
expect Ave Avill find some different
personalities in those “former” out
standing seniors. In all fields and
paths of life the members haA^e
made enviable records, and today I
am going to let you learn something
about my old class, although I doubt
that some of the names Avill be very
familiar to you all. . . .
Drs. Long and Manly
Ahhhhh! My friends, do I hear a
plane in the distance? Yes, and
here comes Joe Pearson, drifting
lazily along under his parachute
and if I’m not mistaken, Claiborne
Pate, his co-pilot Avill land in the
river, and from the Avay he has
started, he’s going to crash through
the headlines — Ohhhhh! Whatta
Avreck! I see John ShaAv and Willis
Casey, internationally known swim
mers and coaches going fo his rescue.
Oh, my! Is there a doctor in the
croAvd ? Ahhhh, yes ! Hazlett Long
and “Doc” Jim Manly are right
there Avith their corps of nurses, all
grads of GHS, and I see Laura
Helms, Annette Rackley, Rachel
Jobson, Nina Medford and there’s
the foremost local embalmer,
Kathryn Seymour, standing anxious
ly and hopefully on the banks of
the riA^er. But, alas! J^o luck. I see
“Clabber” climbing out of the
wreckage unscathed, and who should
craAvl out Avith him but Doris Peele,
the beauty parlor magnate. They
say that between her shops in Miami
and I^^eAV York, she keeps Pan-
American Airways busy. Oh, my!
It’s nice that^tragedy Avas avoided on
5UcK
a
EdAvard’s Hotel business coming
along? Fine? That’s good and I
belicA’e that’s William Kalmar get
ting ready to paint a portrait of Doris
Startt, isn’t it? They say both are
just crazy about their Avork. Ho,
hum! What’s that noise? Oh, I see,
it’s Eddie Mansour, of Mansour,
Inc., but why all the fuss? Gracious,
no wonder! Harry Hollingsworth
and Ted Burwell are interviewing
him for information on “Big Busi
ness” deals. They say that Ted and
Harry have caused more people to
go crazy than any reporter and pho
tographer in the Avorld. Harry’s
stuttering and Ted’s 70-Avord-a-
second method are just too much.
Ohhhh—I knew it — it’s Jack
Wharton, businessman, still trying
to replace ISTelson Eddy, but to no
avail.
Why are all those women in a
cluster ? Oh, I see! It’s Admiral
Ross Ward, youngest unmarried ad-
miial in the navy. There’s Frank
Wynn too, another navy man. Every
one is gathered around in ^small groups
talking with first one, then another.
Just one big, happy family. And
speaking of families, here comes the
former Louise Sineath—“Sineath”
has become a famous dancer in her
spare time aAvay from the children.
There’s Frank Farfour, OAvnei; and
operator of Farfour Co. His secre
taries Avith him include the former
Grace Jones, and Frances Satter
field. There are many teachers here
today too—I see the former Misses
JSTorene Johnson and Margaret Pea
cock. My, oh, my! xVs usual there are
houscAvives attending every occasion
and this happy day is no exception
for there are the former Misses
Edith Daughtry, Olivia Cox, Ethel
Herring, Helen Moore, Nancy
Barden, Blanche Stroud, Hazel
Etheridge, Ercell Adams, Dorothy
Horton, and Emma Cole. Yes, yes,
married life is lovely. There’s old

of science and sportsman. With

see it s tne great and foremost
haAeling novelist, the former Miss
liobbie Anne Sanborn. Talking
with her is her old cronie, Scottie
ameron, or that may be the former,
for I understand that she has been
a lovely bride for four men thus
far—also among the group is Miss
Jeaii Edgerton, girl’s adviser in
GHS now, and she surely ought to
be able to give advice, and the
former Harriet Noel, a Physical
Education Director at Messrs.
Thomas Snypes, Dick-Daughtry, and
Speed Hollowell’s school of Physical
Culture. What a life!
Wharton Still Singing
Why, hello, Joe! How’s the
^enchwarmers—Thompson and
Watson
Let s see ,yes, liere are some
engineers—Jack Hunt, an architect,
I believe, and Dick Whitfield another
engineering success—Moses Roun
tree, famed chemical engineer, and
William Hardison, radio engineer—
All these boy’s have succeeded, but
speaking of success, look avIio’s here
—Its Sam Watson and Hardy Lee
Ihoinpson, bench-warmers for the
New York Giants—Uh! I
Yankees. There’s Floyd Huffman,
business man and husband—June
Ilaidison, actor, and Mr. James
Crone, the foremost character in
terpreter and his close coniuanion,
the former Miss Frances CoAvard,
torch singer and dancer—Well, look
who’s here—If it isn’t Bob Dawson
of Pate-Dawson Company, and wdio
should this be but my old friend
Elizabeth Glisson, big-business lady
with some of her numerous secre-
taiies, among whom I recognize
Carter Glascox, Jean Brown, Ruth
She])ard, and Edith Huffman. All
these young ladies are married, but
as to who their husbands are, I
couldn’t tell.
We have quite a group of “travel
ers,” “traveling saleswomen,” and so
forth here today—Among them I
Sc “fo^'jner” Misses Lucielle
Whx., - -"'^'■rie Westray, Bettie
Gray -.»iovelist, Elizabeth
Smith, C. .-rine Buie, Mildred
Cartwright, and last but not at all
slow in pace, the former Nancy
“Poo” “Poo” Pi])kin, the foremost
traveling journalist, that is, along
with her close and evenly as talented
associate, Helen Moye—Yes! Yes!
These cliffs are as beautiful as ever!
I remember when I was just sixteen,
how I used to—Avell, hello Elbert
Allen, how are you and the A. T.
Griffin Manufacturing Co?—Fine?
I hat’s A^ery nice and I see you
brought along all your beautiful
'^private” secretaries—I see Reba
Grady, Geneva Holloman, Franeesl
Toler, Elizabeth Griffin, and Eliza- -'
beth Gwaltney. Whatta man !
Hmmmmmmrn! Who are those
business-like ladies — Couldn’t be
Ruby Whitley and Mildred liayner,
could it? Yep, it surely is, and
from their looks I’d say they’ve suc
ceeded in the business world—You
know I’ve been told that there is a
beautiful model here and if I’m not
mistaken, here she comes—beau
ticians and all—it’s the former Vir
ginia Summerlin and I believe her
personal beauticians include Grace
UnderAvood, and Mabel Grady—
Whatta Avoman—What a lucky
man!
Orchestra Leader Crocker
There’s Ben Carr, auto salesman,
and James Crocker, chief saxophone
player in his famous orchestra—
My goodness! Here are my old
friends Oscar Williams and Lassiter
Bell, both home town boj'^s who made
good in their home-town—They
operate paint and furniture stores
respectiA^ely—With them is Earl
Padgett, their bookkeeper.
Hello, Ben, how’s the boy, and t
the “kids”-—I hear you’ve just got
back from the World’s Fair, again—
But here comes the one and only
postmaster of the class—James Den
ning, and Avith him are some of his
married secretaries — Poor James!
—I see the “formers'’ Ethel Her
ring, Lillie Mae Jones, and Helen
Hood—Nice go’ng, James—Thank
you, Rachel—Rachel is my secre
tary, and up until about a year ago
she Avas Rachel Edgerton, but now
she’s just Rachel—-My other secre
taries are Annie Ruth Edgerton,
Eunice Collins, Virginia Glascox,
